You don’t have to navigate a crisis alone. When trauma impacts the brain, processing information or standing in a courtroom can feel completely paralyzing. Having a dedicated advocate by your side brings clarity, immediate safety planning, and steady guidance.

If you or someone you know is facing domestic or sexual violence, free and confidential support is available 24/7.

Reach out to the Family Services Center for Victim Safety and Support hotlines:
• 📞 Domestic Violence 24-Hour Hotline: 845-485-5550
• 📞 R**e Crisis/Crime Victims 24-Hour Hotline: 845-452-7272
• 💬 Text Line: 845-583-0800

Breaking the silence is often the hardest part.

Many survivors call a hotline not knowing for sure if what they are experiencing is abuse, they just know something feels wrong. Advocates are here to provide education, clarity, and safety planning without judgment.

When you are ready to speak, an advocate is here to listen.

Free, Confidential 24/7 Support:
📞 Family Services Domestic Violence Hotline: 845-485-5550
📞 R**e Crisis & Crime Victims Hotline: 845-452-7272

"Domestic violence is much more than physical violence."

Domestic abuse can hide in plain sight through love bombing, subtle isolation from family, and financial control. It's time to talk about the warning signs that don't leave physical marks.

Whether you need information and resources or are seeking support during or after a crisis, our advocates are here to listen and guide you towards safety and healing. When you’re ready, we’re here for you.

Friends of Family Services hit the greens last Friday to build community and strengthen our work to create safety, healing, growth, and hope. We couldn't have done it without Toolbox Construction, Inc., who helped turn a day of golf into meaningful impact. Can't wait to do it again next year!
